_Pray for us unto the Lord thy God… that the Lord thy God may show us the way wherein we may walk, and the thing that we may do_.–JER. xlii. 2, 3.

That which I see not, teach Thou me.–JOB xxxiv. 32.

O father, hear! The way is dark, and I would fain discern What steps to take, into which path to turn; Oh! make it clear.
CHRISTIAN INTELLIGENCER.
“We can’t choose happiness either for ourselves or for another; we can’t tell where that will lie. We can only choose whether we will indulge ourselves in the present moment, or whether we will renounce that, for the sake of obeying the Divine voice within us,–for the sake of being true to all the motives that sanctify our lives. I know this belief is hard; it has slipped away from me again and again; but I have felt that if I let it go forever, I should have no light through the darkness of this life.”
GEORGE ELIOT.
There was a care on my mind so to pass my time, that nothing might hinder me from the most steady attention to the voice of the true Shepherd.
JOHN WOOLMAN.
